Back-to-back home runs to start the game? Sure, that works!
Jesús Báez became the first @peoriachiefs to 10 home runs with his second leadoff shot of the week, and Jack Gurevitch followed with his 11th HR of the season - the most by a #STLCards prospect below AAA.
Sammy Hernandez is today's @peoriachiefs pre-game show guest.
We discuss his pitching cameo, his hot start at the plate, and moving to the states from Puerto Rico at 14.
